Vocational department makes academics calendar each semester as the guidance for each study program to make its learning plan in accordance with university academics calendar. Vocational Department also help to facilitate students with course schedule arrangement, mid-semester and final semester assessment and students’ KRS key-in activity. With the total number of students, classrooms, and lecturers as the consideration, this process can be vital for the learning process to run smoothly. Thus, we have made software and its operator to arrange schedules and tests. SOP as follows:

Each study program plan their schedules manually

Planned schedule then given to Vocational Program to be combined and arranged with each study program need, as well as other consideration (time and place)

Fixed schedule then announced to students and lecturers

Vocational Department of UMY has quality control system integrated with quality control system in university level. This system monitor and evaluate learning process supported by Quality Control Group (QCG). QCG has to monitor and evaluate every learning process (lecturing, practices, in-field practices, and assessment). QCG should have meetings with students and academics activities PIC to discuss the academics achievement and academic quality planning. Every semester, to have internal monitor and evaluation, QCG arranged questionnaire and gathered performance data from each study program to evaluate learning process. All the result then submitted to Quality Control Bureau (QCB) to be processed and integrated as University Academic Performance Report at the end of odd/even semester.

The follow up of the result of the learning monitoring and evaluating is giving reward/punishment for their academic performance. There will be punishment/reward in university level too. It is integrated with the academic performance in financial or in non-financial such as: assessment grades incentives, oral/written warning, lecturers’ suspended to assess students’ thesis, etc. These follow up is the part of our effort to increase academic quality, as well as the learning process.
